* The words of Agur the son of Jakeh , even the prophecy : the man spake unto Ithiel #Iythiy #el #, even unto Ithiel #Iythiy #el # and Ucal , * Surely I am more brutish than any man , and have not the understanding of a man . * I neither learned wisdom , nor have the knowledge of the holy . * Who hath ascended up into heaven , or descended ? who hath gathered the wind in his fists ? who hath bound the waters in a garment ? who hath established all the ends of the earth ? what is his name , and what is his sons name , if thou canst tell ? * Every word of God is pure : he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him . * Add thou not unto his words , lest he reprove thee , and thou be found a liar . * Two things have I required of thee ; deny me them not before I die : * Remove far from me vanity and lies dabar #: give me neither poverty nor riches ; feed me with food convenient for me : * Lest I be full , and deny thee , and say , Who is the LORD ? or lest I be poor , and steal , and take the name of my God in vain . * Accuse not a servant unto his master , lest he curse thee , and thou be found guilty . * There is a generation that curseth their father , and doth not bless their mother . * There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes , and yet is not washed from their filthiness tsow #ah #. * There is a generation , O how lofty are their eyes ! and their eyelids #aph #aph # are lifted up . * There is a generation , whose teeth are as swords , and their jaw teeth as knives ma #akeleth #, to devour the poor from off the earth , and the needy from among men . * The horseleach hath two daughters , crying , Give , give . There are three things that are never satisfied , yea , four things say not , It is enough : * The grave sh @#owl #; and the barren womb ; the earth that is not filled with water ; and the fire that saith not , It is enough . * The eye that mocketh at his father , and despiseth to obey his mother , the ravens of the valley shall pick it out , and the young eagles shall eat it . * There be three things which are too wonderful for me , yea , four which I know not : * The way of an eagle in the air ; the way of a serpent upon a rock ; the way of a ship in the midst of the sea ; and the way of a man with a maid . * Such is the way of an adulterous woman ; she eateth , and wipeth her mouth , and saith , I have done no wickedness . * For three things the earth is disquieted , and for four which it cannot bear : * For a servant when he reigneth ; and a fool when he is filled with meat ; * For an odious woman when she is married ; and an handmaid that is heir to her mistress . * There be four things which are little upon the earth , but they are exceeding wise : * The ants are a people not strong , yet they prepare their meat in the summer ; * The conies are but a feeble folk , yet make they their houses in the rocks ; * The locusts have no king , yet go they forth all of them by bands ; * The spider taketh hold with her hands , and is in kings palaces . * There be three things which go well , yea , four are comely in going : * A lion which is strongest among beasts , and turneth not away for any ; * A greyhound mothen #; an he goat also ; and a king , against whom there is no rising up . * If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself , or if thou hast thought evil , lay thine hand upon thy mouth . * Surely the churning of milk bringeth forth butter chem #ah #, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood : so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife .
